fellowship and FrIendship
St. Pauls Church
provides gifts for needy
By Elizabeth A. Kettlewell
CLINTON - The second Sunday in Advent
was also observed as Bible Sunday at St.
Paul's Anglican Church, and was also the
annual White Gift Sunday. Churches
throughout Huron County unite each year in
providing Christmas gifts for needy
families. Gifts may be left at the Christian
Reformed Church in Clinton.
Ladies of St. Paul's Altar Guild are now
planning Christmas church decorations,
and would ' appreciate. hearing from
everyone planning to donate manorial
flowers, or other church flowers.
Members of St. Paul's Building Commit-
tee are pleased to announce that restoration
of the church roof is now complete. It is ex-
pected that the new metal roof will serve
for at least 25 years, and possibly much
longer. The Committee is now planning to
have the church ceiling insulated. This
greatly needed improvement will noticeably
reduce heating costs.
The annual Christmas Pot Luck Luncheon
and fellowship hour will take place next Sun-
day, December 15, following the morning
service. Parishioners wishing to have
transportation to and from services are
welcome to call Mr. Simmons, Bob Camp-
bell or Bi11 Kettlewell.
The Reverend Mr. Gordon Simmons open-
ed his Bible Sunday sermon appropriately
with a Biblical version of "Trivial Pursuit"
Answers to the questions were surprising to
almosLryone in the congregation! In the
66 books of the Protestant Bible there are
1,189 chapters....1,173 verses...592,439 words
in the Old Testament, and 181,253 words in
the New Testament. Mr. Simmons explain-
ed how the wording in each of the many ver-
sions of the Bible changed, although the
message was the same. As an example, he
mentioned that the word "child" was never
used in John Wycliffe's version of the 14th
century, which was the first translation of
the English Bible. Wycliffe used the word
"brat" when referring to a child, but the
term did not imply an unruly child as it does
in today's language. Wycliffe also used the
words "Dad" in place of "father". ---.4
The' original Bible was written in the
Hebrew language over a period of about
1,600 years, beginning about the year 1500
BC, and has been translated in whole, or
part in over 1,200 different languages and
dialects.
For half a century, the Bible has been
reported to be the largest seller of all books
ever published. Members of St. Paul's and
friends who attended the 120th Anniversary
and Re -dedication Service on December 1,
will be able to see photographs taken of
Bishop Derwyn D. Jones. Pictures will be on
display December 15, and copies may be
ordered.

Services hold promise
of Christian education
CLINTON-November has been a .busy
month in the life of the Christian Reformed
Church.
The highlight was the addition of
numerous newborn members to the con-
gregation. The. birth of children into the
families of the congregation is always a hap-
py occasion in the church. The baptism ser-
vice took place on a number of Sundays in
November.
Each time•baptism is administered, one of
three different forms is read by the
minister. The forms explains the meaning of
baptism: a) that children are conceived and
born in sin, b) that holy baptism witnesses
and seals the washing away of sin through
Jesus Christ, and c). that baptism is a sign
and seal of the covenant between God and
his people and their'hildren.

Before the parents are asked to respond to
certain questions directed at them concern-
ing their faith and belief, they are reminded
that baptism is a sacrament given by God to
"seal unto us and our seed His covenant"
and that it "must be used to that end and not
out- of custom or superstition," in other
words, to be taken seriously!
The promises made by the parents include
the promise to educate, and to have the
children educatedinthe Christian faith.
The congregation, in ore of the forms, also

ing up their children.
